Day 30-July 5, 2013-Victor, ID
Gorgeous day again, 82 and sunny!
We pretty much wasted away the morning then drove into town (less than ½ mile away) to see if the bike trail they told us about was nice enough to risk our lives getting to on the main road-it wasn’t. But this being a tourist town, (we’re still only 25 miles from Jackson Hole and we can see the mountains from our campsite) there was a Teton Valley Hot Air Balloon Festival going on this week-end. The hot air balloons come in later but they had a nice craft fair going on so we walked through that. They’ll have bands and other stuff at night. Town is cute, only about 3 blocks long, so we walked along the main street and ended up having lunch at The Station-great food. I also spoke to the insurance agent about the RV damage and it looks like we’ll be all set to get it fixed whenever we want-either on the road or when we get home.
The closest big town is Driggs, 8 miles north so we took a ride there and stocked up on some groceries for the next few days. Came back to camp and Harry washed the truck. Water here is free, they use the run-off from the mountains. Crazy concept to us Floridians where water is like gold. I checked on some campgrounds for the next couple of days and it looks like the mad-rush of 4th of July is over and all the campgrounds have room again so we shouldn’t run into any problems getting a site.
